'\' nullifies the special meaning of the following character, if it has any, notably '\' and '^'.
| echotc Xo | [-sv] arg ... |
| | Exercise terminal capabilities given in arg .... If arg is 'baud', 'cols', 'lines', 'rows', 'meta or' 'tabs', the value of that capability is printed, with "yes" or "no" indicating that the terminal does or does not have that capability. -s returns an empty string for non-existent capabilities, rather than causing an error. -v causes messages to be verbose. |
| edit [on | off] | Enable or disable the editline functionality in a program. |
| history list | size n | unique n | The list command lists all entries in the history. The size command sets the history size to n entries. The unique command controls if history should keep duplicate entries. If n is non zero, only keep unique history entries. If n is zero, then keep all entries (the default). |
| telltc | List the values of all the terminal capabilities (see termcap(5)). |
| settc cap val | Set the terminal capability cap to val, as defined in termcap(5). No sanity checking is done. |
| setty Xo | [-a] [-d] [-q] [-x] [+mode] [-mode] [mode] [char=c] |
| | Control which tty modes that editrc will not allow the user to change. -d , -q or -x tells setty to act on the 'edit', 'quote' or 'execute' set of tty modes respectively; defaulting to -x . Without other arguments, setty lists the modes in the chosen set which are fixed on ('+mode') or off ('-mode'). -a lists all tty modes in the chosen set regardless of the setting. With +mode, -mode or mode, fixes mode on or off or removes control of mode in the chosen set. Setty can also be used to set tty characters to particular values using char=value. If value is empty then the character is set to _POSIX_VDISABLE. |
